Earlier this year at the Geneva Motor Show, Lancia presented the Ypsilon Elefantino ‘14 Collection, an updated version of the special edition model based on the brand’s B-segment hatchback. Now Lancia has presented the car in Milan at the “Lancia Fashion Apartment”, a location where fashion and design coexist in harmony.
Lancia describes the Ypsilon Elefantino ‘14 as “a fashion city car”, with the model sporting three new body colors for 2014 (Kaki Grey, Zaffiro Blue and Carrara Grey), combined with three new fresh-named styles (Lime, Watermelon and Coconut) which help expand the customization options further.
The three new color details accent the Elefantino badge on the tailgate, the “Y” badge on the hub caps and on the side pillar. The grille, mirror fairings and hub caps can be painted either glossy black or matt grey. The new Lancia Ypsilon Elefantino ’14 also comes with customization packs, two for each of the three-color accents.
Special graphics are available on the side pillar and hubcaps – “Camouflage” for the Lime version, “Animalier” for the Watermelon version and “Pois” for the Coconut version. The all-new “Urban Chic” interiors feature new graphic fabrics embellished by stitching and Ypsilon logo matching the exterior color accents, in addition to new glossy black or matt grey dashboard and door panel finishes.
Standard equipment for the Ypsilon Elefantino ’14 includes climate control, ESC, radio with CD and MP3 player, Blue&Me system, leather trim for gear knob and steering wheel with radio controls, electric door mirrors and chrome tail pipe.
Last year, the Lancia Ypsilon was confirmed as the most feminine car in its segment in Italy, as female customers made up close to 70 percent of sales.
